Default Newer engine in older truck?

Hi I have a 2011 f150 with the original coyote 5.0 in it that’s getting a little tired I’m afraid. It has endured a lot of abuse. I’m wondering when it does decide to blow can I put an engine from 2015-2017 f150 in it? I want the newer engine because the internal are stronger. My concern is electrical is there different sensors and such what does it take to hook all that up. I’m fairly certain the mechanical side of it will bolt up just not sure what it take to make it work with the computer maybe it’s all the same? Or may be there’s a company that makes a kit to upgrade it?
